Description

Race-proven performance base layer

In a new style and new fit, the Souplesse Base Layer is the ultimate functional piece for high-tempo riding and racing.

Using the same fabrics as the Pro Team Base Layer, the body is made from an open mesh, offering exceptional breathability. High-stretch side panels are high-wicking, soft and shaped to offer a close-fit in an on-bike position.

Designed to keep you cool in high heat, this base layer is cut and contoured to sit close against the skin. The updated fit features a wider neckline and greater coverage across the back - developed in response to feedback from the riders of CANYON//SRAM. Partially bonded seams and bonded shoulder seams keep the base layer as flat as possible to reduce rubbing or chafing.

Functional and beautifulI bought the sleeveless version last year - it was wonderful. This year, I decided that a short sleeve would help wicking around the arm areas.
When placing the order I was a little sceptical about the fit given the added sleeves.
Surprisingly it was very comfortable and body hugging without no restriction on movement at all. I think the panels on the sides also help to create the magic.
In terms of style, I like the wide neck. However, I prefer the bias vertical panel at the front that the sleeveless version had, but am not sure the seams would reduce the fit.
Overall, very happy with this base layer. I believe tbis is the best fiitting, most breatheable, and most stylish summer base layer around.

Good base layer for everything!In the Summer use my Rapha base layers for everything - cycling, running, hiking, paddle boarding. They are so comfy and light to wear. I love them!
Be sure to wash them in a washing bag though - they are thin and can easily be damaged.

Love this top!To be honest I bought this for the print but it ended up being the an amazing winter base layer coupled with Rapha's Marino long sleeve base layer. So cute and so great!

light and dryI bought this a month ago and only wore it 1-2 times. I gave 4 stars on the limited experience, which I hope I won't regret later if the product does not last. It is very light, fit well and more importantly kept me dry. This is very important especially on long rides where you may have a couple of stops.

Great design and fit!Great fit! As I have a wide chest, it is usually difficult to find well-fitted cycling clothing that does not dig into my underarms but this one has the perfect design.

Works wellAnd finally we get fun printed words on the front. Seems to wick the moisture away from my body, and are a good fit. Also can be washed umpteen times without wear
